December 2009

First off, A HUGE MERCI / THANK YOU from Olga, Tommy Goober & The Amazing Mr Duncan, to everyone in France and Switzerland for the totally fantastic tour!

Apart from the lads closely avoiding a huge gas explosion next to the highway in Switzerland, and a drunk driver crashing in to the tour bus in Bordeaux, they had a wonderful time! Thanks to you lot!

Heres a few pics and YouTube clips from the tour... there's loads more video clips out there on YouTube.
Check 'em out!

Find your answered ASK OLGA questions here...

Not so much a guitar lesson this time around, but Olga speaks at length about aspects of his technique as well as the gear he uses. Check it all out here...

Hey! The Toy Dolls South American and Russian shows should be announced very shortly! Keep checking those tour dates updates!

Over the festive period Tommy is playing Goober Patrol and Vanilla Pod gigs, while Duncan will be performing his own acoustic appearances, as well as gigs with his bands Billy No Mates and Snuff, and also playing as stand-in drummer for the magnificent Leatherface...

Olga was a special guest at Ginger's (Wildhearts) birthday bash. The show was a sell out and by all accounts was an absolute stormer! We'll hopefully get more details for you next time...

More news on the new album soon, along with more 2010 Anniversary shows.

Our little Olga is finally starting to get some recognition! Here in the Spanish Wikipedia, he is mentioned as a notable Telecaster player...

Finally, I for one believe its about time FENDER should honour OLGA with a signature TELECASTER guitar! He has been playing his TELECASTER for over 30 years now!

Anyway, thanks to Rich a special MySpace site has been set up for this, so please check it out, add your comment, become a friend….or whatever it takes! We'll keep you updated on the page's progress...

So, until next time have a great Christmas, and a Happy New Year, from me, your webmaster Ciaron, and of course Olga, Tommy and Duncan...

See you in the New Year!!!

TTFN
